    Loud!! Extremely busy with long wait for reserved table and no where to really stand. Food was not as good as it was in the past. Hard getting waitress’s attention. Women’s restroom was in horrible shape.

    I enjoyed the performances, the cocktail was good. We had sandwiches, they were fine, I would not return for the food, but would return because of the performers.

    We had dinner here before going to see Just in Time. We sat at the bar and had a wonderful server - Grayson - we could not have been better! He was attentive and kind and even let me switch out my cocktail for a different one when I didn't like the one I'd ordered. The food was phenomenal - best tuna melt I think I've ever had. And it was SO much fun listening to the singing servers work the room as we ate. It was the perfect vibe to set the stage for a show night out. Would definitely go back when next visiting New York.
